Complement to Sennheiser

So about a month ago I bought a pair of HD595s, they were OK at first but after I got my DAC I have been loving every minute of them. So much so that I'm planning on getting 650s eventually as well. But I was wondering what I good complement to the Senns are. It seems as though Grados would be good, but I haven't really read up on any other brands in comparison to Senns.


FWIW My system so far is:
FLAC or 320Kbps > Behringer UCA202(just for USB) > Zero DAC > HPs
I will be adding either a LD MKIII, MKIVse or Darkvoice soon as well.

Looks like you both meant complement.

I think "You all sound very nice" is a fine compliment. They are German, after all.

Changed the apparently misleading title :P

How about a pair of AKGs? Grados - of course - are very different from Sennheisers. But if you like acoustics and vocals, AKGs will scratch that itch. The K-501 is exceptional, but for a current production headphone, the K-601 sounds good. I was impressed with it at a meet and have been thinking about adding a pair to the collection.
